There was great kart racing through-out day but there were 2 races that stood out from the other races. The Briggs & Stratton Junior Final race was a great battle between Kart 12 Connor Peet & Kart 8 James Altamirano. The Briggs & Stratton Light Final race was a great 3-way battle between Kart 27 Skylar Dunning, Kart 15 John Kwong, & Kart 10 Tanveer Deen.

Volunteer Race Officials

It takes a lot of people to put on an event on; my favorite is being a track-side Corner Marshal. The best way to watch a race is to be in the kart. The second best way to watch is to be a trackside marshal. If you are interested in racing but not sure about it yourself, being a marshal might be for you. Marshals are there for emergencies and to communicate with racers with flags and to communicate regarding the race with others via radio. Training is provided by an extremely experienced Race Director Fred Causer & experienced Marshals.
